Slightly oxidized, this is nutty and smoky. Dried apricots, caramel, lemon curd, light butterscotch. High tone acidity lifted the very textured body.
I believe this 09 Crianza is the current release. 100% old vine Viura aged in combination of French/American. A style of Rioja Blanco that I need to explore more.

Perfect oyster wine. Very dry with a hint of effervescence, nutty and earthy— not sure how else to describe it but deeelish

2008 was an outstanding vintage in Rioja, hence the 'Honoratus' mention on the label. 100% Viura from old vines in 'El Villar', Rioja Alavesa, Spain. 50% fermented in French and American oak. A developing white wine with a lot of life and love in the wine making process
